This market will resolve according to the winner of the 2026 midterm North Carolina U.S. Senate election, inclusive of any run-offs. A candidate shall be considered to represent a party in the event that he or she is the nominee of the party in question. Candidates other than the Democratic or Republican nominee (e.g., Greens, Libertarian, independent) may be added at a later date. Candidates who run as independents will not be encompassed by the “Democrat” or “Republican” options regardless of any affiliation they may have with the party. The resolution source for this market is the Associated Press, Fox News, and NBC. This market will resolve once all three sources call the race for the same candidate. If all three sources haven’t called the race in this state for the same candidate, this market will resolve based on the official certification.Former Governor Roy Cooper maintains a commanding position in North Carolina’s open Senate race due to sustained double-digit polling leads through summer 2026, driven by strong independent support and high name recognition from his two terms as governor. Republican nominee Michael Whatley, the former RNC chair who won his primary with Trump backing, trails amid low presidential approval ratings in the state and weaker performance with moderates and suburban voters. Cooper has also held a fundraising advantage while both candidates secured their nominations in March primaries. Race ratings have shifted from toss-up to lean or likely Democratic. Traders price in limited room for reversal before the November 3 general election, though shifts in turnout, national conditions, or late developments could still alter the outcome.
